The Mount Beulah Hotel, also known as the Jarrett Springs Hotel and known for the last 70 years as The Jarrett House, is an historic hotel and restaurant located near the intersection of US Highways 23 and 441 in Dillsboro, Jackson County, North Carolina.[1]
The three-story frame hotel with a triple-tiered porch is the dominant building of downtown Dillsboro. It combines traditional and modest Victorian decorative elements. It is one of the few remaining grand Southern Railway (U.S.) Resort Hotels.[2]
The 23-room hotel was built about 1884 and has had a number of additions and modifications since its construction. The building was renovated in 1975, removing the original wooden Victorian porch and replacing it with a cast iron New Orleans-Style Porch.
In 1984, The Jarrett House was added to the National Register of Historic Places.[3]
The buildings and lot were auctioned for back taxes, selling for $120,000 on October 26, 2020.[4] It was again sold at auction in January 2021 to Chris Ellsworth for $300,000. On August 12, 2022, a man working on the metal roof fell to his death.[5] The building was still being restored as of February 2023 and has not reopened as of July 2024.[6]
